“It’s obviously the black hole created when the Saturnians turned on their own LHC…”

Hang on a minute; is that a strange black monolith lurking in the Saturnean clouds!?

Hmm.. in the original ‘Space Odyssey : 2001′ the stargate monolith was originally located on Japetus (the moon which we now call Iapetus) in the Sauturnian system…

So has it gone down and is now doing to Saturn what it does to Jove in ‘Space Odyssey 2010′ … is Saturn about to become a star?!

PS. I’m guessing not really but fun idea anyhow! Scary tothink we’re now somuchclsoer to 2010 than 2001 … How time flies.

The Bad Astronomer asked :

“You should try actually adding value to the conversation.”

Well I’m sure we all *try * but we don’t always succeed -I know that from personal experience! Sorry folks!

Hmm .. Does this add any value to the conversation .. ?

Ah well, I’m trying .. some would say * very * trying at times. But hey I’m human like us all! (Or are we?)

Just remember :
To err is human,
To really foul things up requires a computer!
